A Study on the Welding Characteristics of the Galvalume Steel Sheet

Galvalume 강판의 용접성에 관한 연구

The problem of autobody corrosion has been addressed over the past decade by the increasing use of zinc and zinc alloy costed steels in automotive application. this paper describes the evaluation of formability, weldability and painted corrosion performance of galvalume steel sheet. This paper presents an overview of the program and some initial test results on the weldability, lifetime of the electrode tip shpae of the spot welding and corrosion protection. Galvalume steel sheet improved corrosion performance and spot weldability of galvalume steel has no problem for the variation of welding current. And tip lifetime was changed according to the influence of shape.
